Presented as a part of Chicago Underground Film Festival’s 25th Anniversary, these 2 evenings will be a celebration of DIY filmmaking and will include a screening of the film, live performances from cast members and local artists, Make Out Party-themed carnival games, a silent auction, and of course, a kissing booth — all in a room decked out in the same wacky and colorful style as the film.

Part movie premiere, part DIY party, Make Out Party isn’t just a film — it’s an immersive world you can enjoy for the night!

The event starts at 7pm, Screening at 8:30 with dance party to follow.

About the Film:

Directed by Emily Esperanza, Make Out Party is a no-budget, high-style comedy of errors that follows three vibrant characters though a day of misadventure as they set out to attend hostess Mary Woah’s Make Out Party. The featurette is inextricably connected to the queer artistic communities that inspired it, challenging mainstream archetypes around gender and sexuality in both its creative process and content.
